Podcasts About Career Opportunities for Postdocs

Podcast are a good way to find out about different career paths regardless of time and place. On this page, we would like to introduce you to offerings that address academic career paths on the one hand and non-academic careers on the other. Specific career questions (How do I build up a network or what is actually the Wissenschaftszeitvertragsgesetz?), but also very individual life decisions are addressed. The podcasts can be used to obtain specific information or to learn about completely unexpected perspectives and to better reflect on and plan one's own decisions.

Podcasts in English

On the "PhD Career Stories" website, postdocs report in ten-minute podcasts on their individual career paths after the doctorate.

Different approaches, fields and industries are discussed. The diverse contributions at phdcareerstories.com/ may also serve as  inspiration for your personal career path.

Podcasts in German
